News of a new child isn't all that Meyers is celebrating, however. Along with that, Meyers also confirmed that he would be hosting the 75th Golden Globes Awards in 2018. Hollywood Foreign Press Association President Meher Tatna had glowing things to say in support of the Golden Globes host news. "With his natural comedic wit and innate ability to charm audiences, Seth will help us carry on the celebratory tradition of recognizing the best in television and film at the Party of the Year, " Tatna said in a statement.

The news of his new job hosting the Golden Globes is great considering the changes that Late Night have seen since Meyers' joining. Since his joining of the show, there has seen a significant boost in ratings, which can be a result of Meyers' political coverage and criticism of the Trump administration.

The Golden Globes won't be Meyers' first time hosting a major event. Along with being a one-time Saturday Night Live host, Meyers has also hosted the 2010 ESPYs, the 2014 Primetime Emmys, as well as the 2011 White House Correspondents Dinner.
